Page 13: Notes On Smokeless Fuel (Ancit) Burning
Ancit, smokeless and coal type fuels require very different burning conditions to log burning and to suit this a kit has been developed for the FDC 4, 5 and 8 to maximise efficiency on smokeless fuels. The kit MUST be fitted to obtain the expected performance characteristics from the stove when burning smokeless fuels. -
